Glossary
Art in Public Places: It is useful to distinguish art in public places — art simply placed in a public setting — from “public art,” a practice
that thoughtfully and effectively considers the context for art in public.
Art intervention: is an interaction with a previously existing artwork, audience or venue/space. Intervention can also refer to art which
enters a situation outside the art world in an attempt to change the existing conditions there. For example, intervention art may attempt
art may attempt to change economic or political situations, or may attempt to make people aware of a condition that they previously
they previously had no knowledge of. Since these goals mean that intervention art necessarily addresses and engages with the public,
with the public, some artists call their work "public interventions".
Assemblage: In art, work produced by the incorporation of everyday objects into the composition. Although each non-art object, such
as a piece of rope or newspaper, acquires aesthetic or symbolic meanings within the context of the whole work, it may retain something
retain something of its original identity. The term assemblage, as coined by the artist Jean Dubuffet in the 1950s, may refer to both
refer to both planar and three-dimensional constructions.
Biennial: A major contemporary art festival, usually featuring international artists, presented every two years. Several Biennials held
around the world feature public art, outdoor installations, or new media projects. Among the better known are Venice, Liverpool,
Liverpool, Shanghai, and New Orleans.
Built Environment: This is a broad term to describe the world created by humans, as opposed to nature. It most often pertains to the
constructed or altered natural features of our daily lives, such as buildings, plazas, roadways, bridges, groomed parkland, rain gardens
parkland, rain gardens and other altered or pre-designed areas for everyday activity.
Collaboration: The studio art tradition is full of creative individuals producing works in solitude. To a great extent, public art relies on the
joint efforts of two or more individuals to fulfill a creative vision. Collaboration also refers to the give and take process that any
that any combination of artists, administrators, community members, public agencies, funders, and others engage in to achieve
achieve consensus to meet the needs of a public art project.
Commission: A commissioned work of art usually refers to any artwork created at the request of an entity—a public agency, corporation
or individual—in which the funds to design and produce the art are provided by that entity (or an affiliated agency). Most permanent
Most permanent public artworks in the US have been commissioned.
Community Art: A wide variety of activities are covered by this term, including neighborhood-generated murals, artists-in-residence,
arts in the schools, and process-oriented art engaging the community at large. Artists working in and with the community dates back
community dates back to the 1960s.
Conceptual art: sometimes simply called Conceptualism, is art in which the concept(s) or idea(s) involved in the work take precedence
over traditional aesthetic and material concerns. Many works of conceptual art, sometimes called installations, may be constructed by
be constructed by anyone simply by following a set of written instructions
Installation art: Installation art can be either temporary or permanent. Installation artworks have been constructed in exhibition spaces
such as museums and galleries, as well as public and private spaces. The genre incorporates a broad range of everyday and natural
everyday and natural materials, which are often chosen for their "evocative" qualities, as well as new media such as video, sound,
video, sound, performance, immersive virtual reality and the internet. Installations are site specific in that they are designed to exist
designed to exist only in the space for which they were created, appealing to qualities evident in a three-dimensional immersive
immersive medium.
LED: Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a relatively new form of energy-efficient lighting. LED lights use less energy and last many times
longer than conventional light fixtures.
New Media: A general term used to describe new directions in art utilizing technology, video, projection computers, the Internet, geo-
locational devices, and other recently developed tools and technology, typically of an electronic nature. New media public art often
public art often involves interactive technology and audience-activated artwork.
Participatory art: is an approach to making art in which the audience is engaged directly in the creative process, allowing them to
become co-authors, editors, and observers of the work. Therefore, this type of art is incomplete without the viewers physical
interaction.
Placemaking: A term used to describe the design and development of common spaces, shared environments and civic places created
for communities, often in urban settings. Artists’ involvement in placemaking is considered a best practice by urban planners,
planners, landscape architects and city builders.
Plop Art: A term coined in the 70s by artist James Wines—often used in a derogatory manner—to describe artwork created
independently and without consideration for the environment in which it is sited.
Glossary
Public Art: Public art is a multifaceted field of inquiry; it encompasses a wide variety of creative expressions in the public realm. From historical
monuments to contemporary installations and performance events, the menu of possibilities is endless. The intention of each public art program
also varies; definitions and generalizations are not commonly held. For some communities public art is seen as a means of enhancing or
personalizing otherwise impersonal spaces. For others, it’s a way to activate civic dialogue, or provide a vehicle for communities to express their
unique identity.
Site-Specific: This term refers to works of art or projects that take into account, interface with, or are otherwise informed by the surrounding
includes the physical limitations of a site, weather conditions, history, audience demographics and usage, lighting and many other aspects.
Web-based Art: As more people have access to the Internet, artists are drawn to create artworks and virtual environments for the online
